Chapter 450 She Is the Hostess
However, Annalise came prepared today and bribed several people to be her minions. Another would
rush in to make up for anyone who couldn't fend off Madeline's gaze.
"No way? Even if Mr. Quincy abandoned me, it's not like I'd fall so low that I couldn't afford a dress and
had to copy someone else's design and make my own. I wouldn't want to be associated with someone
like you if it were me."
"Is it possible that Ms. Madeline is simply trying to outdo Ms. Solace with a knockoff dress for Mr.
Quincy?"
"In that regard, Mr. Quincy has been engaged to Ms. Solace since he was a child. They would have
been living together for a long time if Ms. Madeline hadn't intervened in such a heinous way. As
humans, we must maintain some level of conscience or suffer the repercussions."
After hearing this, Elise couldn't hold back her rage, so she was about to confront and reason with
them.
Madeline held her restless hand down and smiled as she cast a sweeping glance at the three women
talking. The three women presented a united front while exuding confidence. They were no longer
afraid of Madeline as they fixedly stared down at her.
"I'm here today at Mr. Quincy's invitation. I'm not at all interested in Ms. Solace's man. Please don't
misinterpret my presence here today, Ms. Solace."
Annalise clenched her teeth and smiled indifferently at her. She didn't think it was possible that Noah
had invited her, let alone that she wasn't interested in him.
What was the point of her dressing up so fancy if not to snare her man?
Annalise shot an angry glance at the person beside her, and shortly after, security guards approached
to escort Madeline away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMadeline furrowed her brows and showed the other party her invitation, but the other party snatched it
right away, insisting that she had come uninvited.
"She still claims she didn't come to steal Mr. Quincy, but even the security guards couldn't get her to
leave. She's like a bandaid that won't come off!"
"Is this person addicted to being a mistress? Mr. Quincy no longer wants her, yet she persists in
throwing herself at him!"
"Her family has gone bankrupt, and she worked hard to secure Mr. Quincy's attachment using her
children. It wouldn't be easy for her to let go so quickly."
Madeline came today because she wanted to test whether the lucky charm in her hand would bring her
misfortune. She had a feeling yesterday's car accident had something to do with that charm.
If the other party intended to confront her or take the lucky charm from her, then her high-profile
appearance here would provide the best opportunity."
It was just that she would have grown tired of hearing such complaints before she could even wait for
the mysterious person to appear.
She was about to leave right away, but she wanted to take the kids with her.
"I'm sorry, but you need to go to the security room for identity verification," the security guard explained.
Madeline was about to leave when Annalise signaled the guard to stop her, which he did.
This was done on purpose to humiliate her.
"I want to see Mr. Quincy," Madeline said icily, showing no interest in reasoning with them.
Noah had invited her to come here today and had even provided her with the dress, so it would only be
right for him to handle these minor issues.
"Mr. Quincy is unable to see you right now. Please come with us," said the security guard as he
prepared to drag Madeline away.
The women standing next to Annalise all had smug expressions on their faces, anticipating Madeline's
expulsion.
The others merely stood by and quietly observed the drama as it played out.
After all, she was still the chairman of the Charity Association, and those with common sense would not
offend her in such a blatant manner.
Madeline sighed softly. In all honesty, she had no desire to cause a commotion today. However, these
people were charging at her one after the other, so she decided not to hold back any longer.
Before Madeline could act, the bodyguard was suddenly thrown out like a rag doll. Noah stood tall and
imposing behind him. With a stern expression, he coldly glared at the other bodyguards.
Annalise had dismissed the other bodyguards. They didn't seem to understand what was going on, but
judging by Noah's dark expression, they knew something serious had occurred, so they all dropped
their heads and accepted responsibility for their error.
"Noah, don't hold it against them. They were only doing their job. Madeline, if you wish to remain here,
you may, but please refrain from causing any more trouble. It will not help you in any way." Annalise
stepped up, playing the role of a pure and virtuous lady.
She put on a pitiful face with her red-rimmed eyes and hugged Noah's arm, but Noah pushed her away
ruthlessly.
Noah stood next to Madeline with fiery eyes and declared, "It is my men's duty to protect my family and
me. Those who fail to recognize their position have no place in the Quincy household."
Everyone in the audience was stunned by Noah's actions. Today was supposed to be the day of his
engagement to Annalise, yet he was standing next to another woman and mocking Annalise for not
recognizing her place.
Could Annalise have married into the Quincy family as the second wife?
The audience watched Annalise's face for a moment, sensing that things were about to get interesting.
Annalise was shocked and indignant all at once. With her face covered in tears, she drew closer to
Noah and said, "Noah, I know that you are letting Madeline stay here for the sake of the three children.
Don't worry. I won't get mad as long as she doesn't cause trouble."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNoah furrowed his brows tightly, not because of Annalise's words but because he wanted to take
Madeline's hand. However, when he tried, she hit his hand so hard that the back of it turned red.
"She is my wife and the hostess of this event. If she wishes to stay, she has the right to do so without
anyone's permission, including mine," declared Noah firmly.
Annalise looked at Noah in disbelief. She kept shaking her head, thinking that it was impossible that
Noah would treat her as such.
"Noah, what do you mean? Today is the day of your engagement to Annalise, but you say Madeline is
the hostess for today's event?" Rowan ostensibly spoke these words to seek justice for Annalise, but
he was trying to figure out what Noah was up to.
Did he ever wrong Madeline? If that were the case, they would not let him go so easily today.
Regarding Annalise, she was the one who chose to ignore advice and subjected herself to humiliation.
There was nothing that could be done about it.
"Madeline is my wife and the mother of my three children. She is also the hostess today. What's the
issue?" Noah did not directly respond to his question.
Rowan inwardly cursed at that sly old fox and pressed, "So where does the Solace family stand today?
If you don't give us a satisfactory answer, we won't simply let it go today!"
Oscar looked around and couldn't find Steve, so he knew Noah was up to something. Recognizing that
Noah wasn't deliberately trying to provoke the elderly man, he decided to hold his tongue.
Alexander cast a glance at Madeline's face and inquired with worry, "Madeline, you don't look too good.
Are you feeling unwell?"
Madeline smiled faintly and shook her head. Although the dress's material was very soft and didn't
seem to be affecting the wound on her back, she was concerned that she may have aggravated it
when she taught the bodyguard a lesson earlier. She wondered if it was bleeding.
Upon hearing Alexander's words, Noah swiftly pulled Madeline into his embrace and asked with
concern, "Are you okay? Where does it hurt?"
